I have had a string of really good days…

For one, this little piece of awesome from Plaid Pigeon arrived in the mail today. How could you not love a plastic dinosaur with a succulent growing out of his back?

Yesterday, my Sisal Rope Table was featured on Apartment Therapy! I can’t even describe how excited I was when I found that out.

And finally, this past weekend I went to an Elmer’s Craft and Tell party at the house of Katie from Sweet Rose Studio, with a few other local bloggers. Katie is a great hostess and the tables she set up for crafting were adorable.

Elmer’s provided us with a bunch of products for each crafter to take home. There were Glue Spots, scissors, an X-acto knife, a cutting mat, gel pens, glue sticks and other cool Elmer’s products to use. I made a candy themed picture frame for the sparkletots’ room.

I started by painting an unfinished wood picture frame yellow, then I made accordion rosettes out of scrapbook paper as candy and placed Glue Spots covered in glitter in the middle. I had forgotten to get vellum, so I used waxed paper, which I folded in to an accordion and put those under the rosettes to look like candy wrappers. Then I stuck on some glittery stickers to say “sweet as candy.” Super easy.

If you want to score some Elmer’s goodies of your own head over to enter the giveaway at Sweet Rose Studio!
